Healthy Dal

Today is the recipe for Kids too. Because its so healthy and tasty that kids will love it definitely. For kid its very difficult to feed them. Specially whenever you are trying to feed them something healthy foods.
I have a boy age of 2 and 1/2 years old. I know its very difficult to feed him fruit or any kind of vegetables which are very essential for him.

The age of 2-5 years are very crucial period to make a good food habit for the growing children. Because this is the time to boost theirimmune system. So its very urgent necessity that try to give your children more and more vegetables every day. One of them should has to be one green leafy vegetablesitem. Green leafy vegetables helps to purify blood as well as keep bowel system clear. Prevent constipation. You can find more info or nutritional benefits if you follow up those links, I mentioned above.

So today I included one dal recipe with vegetables. I like to prepare it because it makes me easy to feed my son. As I put here all nutritional vegetables in grated way or cut into small small pieces so its very easy to cook and feed with rice or roti/chapati for both. You can serve it without any rice or roti also. It has much more protein (In Red lentils/Masoor dal you will get same value of protein like a fish,means it has same amount of animal protein ) because of dal and other nutritional values because of vegetables. And easy to prepare also. Usually I make it in pressure cooker.That's why it keeps its nutritional value intact too. Of course I must say its tasty also. So back to the recipe .
Here is the ingredients and method for this recipe.

Wash dal/lentils and keep aside.
Put pressure cooker onto the stove.
Heat oil and add cumin seeds,coriander seeds, Crushed black pepper saute till they turn into brown color.
Add Ginger and garlic paste.
Add asafoetida,turmeric powder and all the vegetables(except coriander leaves) cook for 1 min.
Add dal , required water and salt to taste.
Cover with lid.
Whistle for 6 to 8 times.
Put off the gas do not open until steam is there.
Open lid and add coriander leaves.
Serve with rice or roti or any other way you know.
